Rip Haywire by Dan Thompson for July 06, 2013

A rare tip of the cap to the colorist, on the transition from panel three to four. Nice bit of moodwork.

Good thinkin’, Rip…

A trio of thoughts:• What will be Cobra’s reaction when she discovers that Rip is not pining after her every second of the day?• What will Breezy’s reaction be when she discovers just how much of an adrenaline junkie Rip is? • What will Breezy’s reaction be when she finds out how often her life is placed in danger because of Rip’s life style? (Think TNT)

Me thinks this relationship is not going to last.

I would drop Cobra in a second. A man can put up with only so much before he wakes up. I hope things work out with Breezy.

We don’t know if the Tiki Wish God is on the level, either, or what will happen when it falls into someone else’s hands. Cobra’s maybe? Today’s artwork is Ka-beautiful!

Rip shows a rare moment of good sense.

Breezy is one fine looking toon but she ain’t Cobra. Here’s hoping Rip & Cobra find their way back to each other.

This is all very sweet, but one must wonder why Rip seems to have succumbed to … wait … where is Breezy’s right hand????

Our boy finally comes up with a good ideer…

My guess on Dan’s out is that Breezy wished the Tiki showed Rip that they were meant to be together. So, Rip’s wishes were “pre-destined” to show Cobra in the worst light and Breezy as Rip’s intended love.

If Rip dumps Cobra I got first dibs.

HOORAY! It’s about gosh-darn time Rip realized Breezy is something special! That said, I think PMark makes some excellent points! Ah, the fun never ends! :-)

Rip… There may be hope for you yet.

Good for you, Rip. You’re finally getting to know a good girl. Best, Nick
